bought the car for $300 like that. had the a6 out of the si in it 3 days after it came home.

piston had been shot waaaaay up in there. i think the previous owner drove it until they couldn't take the knock anymore (doh!)

Yop that is my engine I mean my ex engine now I'll sell here for parts!

So here are the picvs how the car looks now and the whole in the engine block if you look close you can see the crank shaft

The hood is ruined but I'll get new and put in the toyota WRC hood scoop, but other parts of chasies are good they are just dirty...



And the whole in the engine block



So now the car is goin to my friends garage and we'll totaly redone the car it'll be probobly the whole year project:

-swap engine
-the whole car will be fresh paineted I'm thinking of two colors the lower part of the car will be in metal cherry red and the upper part will be white (liek tha accord from parotech)
-all body line will be fixed, no door hoks no side moldings and the wide body kit from feels will go on!
-and some interior will be done to I'll swap the 6th gen whole dash into

So we have a lot of work to do and a lot of money will be invested in thsi project, tomorrow I'll buy my self a new car for daily use some piece of crap but it'll be good for year and then when my beast come back on the road I'll be the happiest man in the world long way til there!

So I'll post some new info as soon we'll start with the project!

Ok all this happen cause u pushed top speed???

[bracer]

That sucks emil
So you were driving 230kph when it blew? @ how many RPM's?

Good luck with the new project man!

[mellowboy]

Did you take out the rev limiter?

[emil13si]

YOP I was pushing the max speed over the 230km/h but not for just a mile or two a was going on a long trip for some parts and I was kind in a hurry so I did push it to the max on the way there and on the way back so the whole trip was like 304 miles long so you can imagine that but I did stop at some places but on the way back I was like 30 miles goin on the top speed the top speed was probobly over 230 km/h cause my km/h limiter was to the max when I had somewhere around 6800 rpm but I was pushing like 7000-7100 rpm or lilttle more....

I know that that was crazy pushing it so much so far but I wanned to push it to 7500rpm cause my limit is around 8000rpm new ECU like I said! I did push it almost every time I was on high way but that was the firs time that I've drove so many miles and it was all hard miles...

So now I'm buying my self daily use car (I'll get it tomorrow ) for that time till we don't tune my civic till max swap the engine and made all that that is on my list :sun:

[emil13si]

Right that time when the engine blow up I was like goin about 170km/h or little more and then there were no cars and I pushed the pedal to the metal and it just went off and all that shity thing happend...

I already know what happened, the oil was goin on very high temp. so it lose it's carecteristcs and didn't do thejob and then one of the piston stoped for little and the rod racked on it's way down and broke the engine block and what happened after you already know

Why I was pushing it so much- it was very cold so the carwas goin crazy it rev so high and so eazy so I was lookin at water temp and it was still in it's place on the middle like it's all normall so pushed it and thought it's very cold so the engine is cooling well but I guess the oil temp wasn't so normal it was like on the critic limit and that's why all the shit happen'

I'm so mad at my self right now, but what is done is done I can't fix that what I've done, so I must go on and build a better and stronger engine:sun:

Emil - that sucks mate I hope you can sort it out sooner or later. It may be to do with the ZC being a tad undersquare in bore v's stroke, but you said it happened when you'd backed off so it prolly wouldn't be RPM related. Could be oil starvation though - the temp gueage is a lousy indicator due to it's positioning on the motor.

Anyway - I hope it's all good soon.

Cheers
Pete
